Where is your Japanese mecha now, /m/?

While I can clearly see how simple control schemes like those in Gundam cockpits make sense after watching that video, and make the ones in Battletech laughable, I still cannot believe the level of internet hype around this. This isn't a mecha. It's not free-standing. It's just a fucking pair of arms mounted to a hanging prop.

Superior Korean Engineering. I bet Japan will use it for the Olympic Gundam.

There are BattleMechs that have control schemes like Gundam, especially those that were used in the World of Blake Jihad.

At least Breitbart isn't going to hype this up and proclaim the future is now.

>>15346290
Yeah but those were late additions to the canon. When they were thinking up Battletech people were still using mainframes, and the tech gap between our era and old franchises just keeps growing.

How long til G Gundam Olympics?

remember last time we had LE EBIN GIANT ROBOT IN REAL LIFE?
That megabot shitshow tried to generate all the hype in the world and didn't really deliver. People are probably a bit numbed by this whole idea now.

That's assuming people besides those on /m/ even heard of or know what megabot was.

Japs were doing this shit in their garages in the mid 2000s.

there were some media coverages on the whole "US challenge Japan" thing.
If anything, the view counts on their challenge video proved they were somewhat well known.

They have tested it walking before with slack support lines.
It can stand on it's own. They'd just much rather not, because if this thing falls that's probably gonna be pretty bad.
